Storm Reports/Totals

11:00am Update:  Moderate to heavy snow will continue along Highway 20 through the morning as this system continues to push east and is expected to continue for the next couple of hours.  Warmer air from the south is beginning to push into west-central Illinois where freezing rain is being reported around Moline, IL where temperatures have reached at least 30° or more.  Look for this moderate snow to continue into Northern Illinois with possibly a mix along I-88 and then changing over to rain further south.  I do believe there will be a period where we could see a little freezing rain mixed in with this snow later this afternoon area wide...especially if temperatures get closer to that freezing mark.  Winds will remain gusty throughout the day creating low visibility and causing some blowing and drifting of the snow that has already fallen.

There have been reports coming in to the newsroom of a few accidents around the area so please make sure you drive carefully this afternoon.  The back edge of the snow is beginning to move into eastern Iowa with rain being reported in central Iowa with temperatures in the low 30s.
